Small-waterplane-area twin hull - Wikipedia
A small waterplane area twin hull, better known by the acronym SWATH, is a catamaran design that minimizes hull cross section area at the sea's surface. Minimizing the ship's volume near the surface area of the sea, where wave energy is located, minimizes a vessel's response to sea state, even in high seas and at high speeds.
Are Swath platforms the ideal superyacht design? - BOAT …
2015年1月21日 · SWATH is an innovative hull concept for smooth service in rough seas. The idea was taken from the principle of semi-submersible offshore rigs, designed to provide a working platform with minimised motion in open sea.

2016年10月18日 · Abeking & Rasmussen and Reymond Langton Design, have developed a 62 m SWATH yacht preliminary design with internal volume equivalent to a 80 m monohull for customer who expects to cruise in extreme comfort and to have a …
SMALL WATERPLANE AREA TWIN HULL OR SWATH BOAT DESIGN …
The SWATH ship is a twin-hull ship design that minimizes hull volume in the surface area of the sea. By minimizing hull volume in the sea's surface, where wave energy is located, the vessel becomes very stable, even in high seas and at high speeds.
S.W.A.T.H. BOAT DESIGN SMALL WATERPLANE AREA TWIN …
Basically, a SWATH vessel consists of two parallel torpedo like hulls attached to which are two or more streamlined struts which pierce the water surface and support an above water platform. The US Navy commissioned the construction of a SWATH ship called the 'Kaimalino' to prove the theory as part of their ship research programme.
Swath Hull Design - Understanding the Concept Behind It
Swath hull is an innovative ship hull design that reduces the contact of the ship with water and thus increases its speed and efficiency. Supposed to be known as one of the most innovative ship design technologies of recent times, Swath hull are presently being used by Navies around the world and also for making medium sized passenger ferries.
SWATH (Small Waterplane Area Twin Hull) - Cape Horn Engineering
2021年3月18日 · This is the first DP2, twin-hulled SOV in the world and the first to serve three different wind farm sites. The SWATH provides a stable platform and large, broad decks for offshore crew activities services. The new vessel significantly improves safety, comfort and workability for wind farm technicians – even in the roughest sea conditions.

SWATH Ships. Small waterplane area twin hull (SWATH) is a twin-hull ship design that minimizes hull volume in the surface area of the sea. By minimizing hull volume in the sea’s surface, where wave energy is located, the vessel becomes very stable, even in high seas and at high speeds.
SWATH, The Art Of Compromise - Martin, Ottaway, van Hemmen & Dolan, Inc.
2016年2月11日 · The SWATH design is inherently expensive to build, has lots of wetted hull surface (which results in high drag at high speed), has limited payload capacity, tends to have deeper draft and is incredibly weight sensitive. Its inherent limited payload capacity limits SWATH applications to small vessels that do not carry high weight cargoes.
